The new DJI Mini 3 Pro

If you are looking for a drone, DJI is the right address! Technical innovation and a large number of features are the order of the day at DJI. With the new DJI Mini 3 Pro, DJI is targeting users who are looking for a small and particularly lightweight drone but don't want to compromise on outstanding image quality.

Due to its weight, you do not need a registration for it in most countries & regions and the foldable and compact design makes it the perfect travel companion. You can document your next hike or spontaneous weekend getaway from a whole new perspective.

A compact drone in jacket pocket format

Main functions of the drone

  • Lighter than 249g
  • Obstacle avoidance in 3 directions
  • True vertical shots
  • FocusTrack
  • Up to 34min flight time
  • Video format H.265 & D-Cinelike color profiles

The new functions in detail

The new DJI Mini 3 Pro comes with APAS 4.0 and improved sensors for obstacle avoidance in 3 directions. APAS 4.0 supports the pilot even better in recognizing objects on the flight path. Even in difficult areas, the system reliably supports the pilot for a safe flight.

Many videographers will be pleased that the new DJI Mini drone has true 4K HDR, as well as a flat video format and the D-Cinelike color profile. Drone photographers won't miss out either: the Mini 3's 1/1.3" CMOS sensor offers 48 MP and a RAW format that can also be used for post-processing. No matter what creative work the drone is used for, the DJI Mini 3 Pro will support you! With MasterShots & FocusTrack, the drone helps you capture the scene to perfection. While MasterShots helps you take groundbreaking aerial shots by performing a series of flight maneuvers to capture the subject in many spectacular angles. The Focustrack supports you in filming by tracking your subject in a smart way, be it the ActiveTrack 4.0, the Spotlight 2.0 or the Point of Interest 3.0.

  • 4K HDR video
  • FocusTrack
  • True vertical shots
  • Obstacle avoidance in 3 directions
  • as powerful as it is handy
  • foldable and compact design

Professional quality without compromise

Day or night, the Mini 3 Pro offers outstanding image quality whatever the time of day. The open aperture of 1.7 and the focal length of 24mm are convincing here, in combination with the dual native ISO, you can capture the fine details in the twilight. The sensor of the DJI Mini 3 Pro offers a wide dynamic range and the image transfer to the DJI RC-N1 or the new DJI RC remote control also helps to create the perfect scene, thanks to a maximum image transfer rate of 18 MBit/s and a minimum latency of just 120 ms.

Our personal highlight of the new DJI Mini 3 Pro is that the camera can be rotated to an actual vertical position! This puts an end to zooming to portrait format! So you no longer lose quality & time. Quick and easy breathtaking shots in portrait mode for Instagram and co. is now a reality!

DJI RC remote control

The new DJI RC remote control has a battery life of 4 hours and, with a very bright integrated display, is the perfect complement to the Mini 3 Pro and rounds off the overall concept. It is very similar to the DJI RC Pro and is somewhat simpler and more streamlined in terms of functionality. The DJI Fly app is pre-installed on the DJI RC remote control, so you can concentrate fully on flying the drone.
